For years, a Python developer who needed a GPU had two realistic choices: Learn NVIDIA CUDA C++ well enough to write an extension, set up a build toolchain, and maintain bindings back to Python, which most people never did; or move up the stack and let someone else’s library do it, namely PyTorch, CuPy, or RAPIDS. The second option is why the Python GPU ecosystem thrives. But it has limits.

NVIDIA nvmath-python is a library designed to bridge the gap between the Python scientific community and NVIDIA CUDA-X math libraries. It gives Python users access to CUDA-X performance for common math operations without disrupting existing workflows. Depending on the API, operations can run on a CPU, CUDA-enabled GPU, or distributed multi-GPU, multi-node systems.
